The giant cinnamon rolls! We missed them on this trip, alas, but we come here every time we are in Rockport

To say you've been to Rockport and never visited Stevie Lew's would make one extremely sad! A local treasure that is open for select days is worth seeking out! We and friends always make it a point to enjoy their BBQ and coffee which is amazing to say the least! The service is amazing and the restaurant itself perfect and rustic. The place is always popping with folks eager to get their bellies filled with the best bbq in town! read more

We have been wanting to try this place out for a while now but their hours never matched up to when we were over near them. Well today we made the drive over intentionally to check this place out. Everything was great! We shared a 3 meat pleated with pulled pork and ribs. The ribs were fall apart moist and juicy. Probably the best BBQ we have had in Rockport/Fulton area. We will be back. read more

Stevie Lew's BBQ Kitchen - Brisket tacos - Barbeque Near Me - Rockport, Texas

We got a three meat plate and split it. Everything was delicious, especially the sausage.

Very friendly and welcoming. The staff is all family and the pride shows. The barbecue is tender and well flavored. The sides are well seasoned and delicious. We have visited this restaurant many times during our stay. Their cinnamon rolls are huge, Texas style. I prefer them smaller and gooey but they are tasty. I highly recommend this place! read more

Great place to eat Good food and good service. Highly recommend this. Cinnamon rolls for breakfast are the largest you have ever seen. read more

The brisket is very good. Kind of unique to a BBQ diner are the shrimp tacos and the jambalaya. Both very good as are the cowboy beans. The folks there are friendly and service is quick. It can get a bit smokey in the dining room sometimes from the pit. read more

For a small town, that prides itself on fresh seafood, Stevie Lee's knocked it out of the park with their BBQ. We walked in on the recommendation of a business friend right at lunch time and they were busy. But not too busy to help us make great choices about our meal. We sampled the brisket, ribs, and in house sausage. All of it was great but we settled on the brisket and the ribs. They have two sauces to choose from and both are very tasty with the one for pork being a little spicier than the beef sauce. They have some sides and we only tried the coleslaw which was also excellent. The restaurant is small but clean and was packed by the time we left and we knew why by the great taste of everything. The only problem with this review is we ate everything so quickly I didn't get any pictures. Please check them out the next time you are in Rockport and hungry for Barbecue. read more

I ate a lot of barbecue in the Houston area, but this tops it in price, quality and flavor. I wish they would open one up here in Houston. This is a family owned business, and the workers are very friendly and know good barbecue read more

Best bbq around! Love this place!!! Beef is so flavorful and tender. I wish they were open more days and hours. read more

This is the go to place for real Texas bbq. The brisket, ribs, pork, shrimp tacos and all of their sides are fabulous! They also have a scratch bakery and roast coffee. Super nice, people hardworking family. read more

I walked in to get a cup of coffee and was greeted with the inviting aroma of barbecue! The coffee was freshly brewed and piping hot--perfectly brewed, not too acidic or harsh but nicely dark and rich! One of the best cups of coffee I've had in a long time! read more

Excellent Texas BBQ! Great place and wonderfully family owned and operated! Also have the best coffee roasted on-site!

Good food good prices... had a catered meal for Valentines and it was enjoyed by all. The cream corn I could make a meal of by itself.

Some of the best BBQ ever! I love scratch kitchens, and they obviously make most things from scratch here. Very friendly staff and great service. Also enjoyed the creative decor and cleanliness. If we lived nearby, we'd make return visits! read more

Food was great. All meats awesome. Came back today to try ribs. Were out yesterday. Great ribs. Cherry cobbler was great. Also roast their own coffee. Got an iced coffee. Was good. Cream corn was good. But nothing special. Parking is tight when busy. Ambience is charming and rustic. Nice friendly staff. Good people. My new go to BBq spot in Rockport!!! read more

I have been in Texas for 3 weeks now and we have been trying the best BBQ spots around Dallas as much as I can. This place was fine, not great, not nearly as good as places I have been to recently, but it was close to where we were staying - so we gave it a whirl. We got the brisket sandwich (added potato salad) and the baked potato served with corn, cheese and pulled pork - That thing was MASSIVE, served with coleslaw and a piece of garlic toast. The good news - I really liked the potato salad and the coleslaw. The pork was better to me than the brisket meat. I wish the corn had been fresh but it was canned or something - and when we went to pack up leftovers, there was a lot of water on the bottom of the plate that I suspect came from non-drained corn. read more

We go when visiting my parents for a Texas Cinnamon Roll. One fed 5 of us. They are balanced and not too sweet with gooey cinnamon. Best when hot and fresh. We were hungry and forgot to take a picture but the ones on line are accurate. The BBQ is also good you just have to plan around when they are open. Super friendly staff and always welcoming. read more

The absolute best food, coffee, desserts. A great place to be. Nothing but kind hearted people

Just got a take home Texas BBQ SLAM which is 3-meats and a side of red potato salad. Plus Crème Brûlée freshly roasted coffee beans and raw honey from Victoria Texas. Small towns can have sweet benefits! The raw honey is SO THIN that it have never held tight naturally in the honeycomb and I believe it's been diluted. I cannot recommend this product. read more

Stevie Lew's BBQ Kitchen - Raw and unfiltered honey is SO THIN that it could never stay in the comb. I believe it's been diluted. I do not recommend it. - Barbeque Near Me - Rockport, Texas

I wish we had gotten here a little earlier and could have gotten some of the brisket or pulled pork, but that means I'll just have to come back next time we visit. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of the food. Despite being a BBQ place they have a really nice variety of offerings and even coffee. I was kind of surprised they didn't offer a coffee bbq sauce... I'll come back for the coffee and pastries. read more

Food was amazing, we got the brisket and pulled pork, both great! great service and cute decor for eating in.

Love visiting Stevie Lew's, have not had anything on menu that was not Delish! Great service, everyone is so friendly and welcoming, they even have a small assortment of coffee, spices, teas, baked items, etc so shopping is involved and recommended. Even t-shirts are available for purchase. Good food, great service, and a variety to choose! Something for everyone. read more

A very busy spot, and when you try the food you know why. Some of the best restaurant brisket we've had anywhere in Texas, and the closest we've found yet to the home stuff smoked by our competition winning neighbor. Good selection and quality of sides as well, and their pickles are house made - none of that soggy jar nonsense you'll find elsewhere. The ambiance is peak Texas, and I highly recommend eating in if you have a chance to! read more

Great Barbecue, get there early, the sell out of the good stuff. The brisket was just a little over cooked, still tender and juicy, way better than uncooked and tough, overall I'd give it a 4.5. read more

Best BBQ I have had in Texas. Service was awesome and the whole staff treats you like family. read more

We just had lunch and the brisket and pulled pork sandwiches were amazing along with 5 star customer service!!

This place is great for coffee and fresh baked goods. The coffee is smooth and flavorful. The baked goods are fantastic. I've not tried the BBQ yet, or the Friday night music. Its high on my to-do list. read more

I've always driven by Stevie Lew's and finally decided to give it a try. I should've kept driving... Ordered a half pound of MOIST brisket, half pound sausage, and half pound of ribs. I specifically emphasized the moist brisket by adding, "don't trim that fat off". If this was their moist brisket, I'd hate to try the lean. Let me just sum up this review. Those two stars are for the polite staff, short time spent in the drive thru. The ribs, sausage, and dry "moist" brisket weren't good. I really wanted to like this place because it's right in front of our condo, and would've given me an easy go to place for bbq. Sadly, next time I'll just keep driving. read more

Best BBQ, especially the ribs! And they just happen to have one of the best coffee shops too.

Best bbq I've had in a while, and the same for the espresso!! Sauces and from scratch, pastries from scratch, and their own toast for espresso beans. This place is actually worth coming from Austin Tx just to visit. Matt took over the biz from his father Stevie Lew - and I know his dad would be proud. Runs this with his wife as a family business. I've just done a taste test of 3 Kansas City bbq places, and his bbq beats those. His sauces even compete with Kansas City I drive through Lockhart when I come to Rockport, so I always sample the famous Kruetz or Blacks, and Stevie's Bbq is right up there!! The Mad Scientist BBQ needs to come check this place out. It adds a whole reason to love or visit Rockport TX read more

How can you not love a bbq shack in a trailer park. The ambience is South TX coastal. Authentic! The BBQ lives up to the setting. The "top cut" brisket is fantastic. The ribs fall of the bone and the flavors and sauces spot on. All served with a smile from the walkthrough cafeteria serving station. We do take out there all the time for larger groups but I love taking newbies to Rockport there. Americana at its best read more

This place is a slice of heaven! Seriously, this place is amazing. They've built up a little BBQ kingdom here, and Stevie is the king. The BBQ joint is on this little compound, located right off the highway, and a stone's throw from Fulton Beach. When you pull in, there's a RV park behind the BBQ joint that you must pull through to pick up your order. It loops around the restaurant, and a pool. Many of the RVs look like they're snowbirds who just wanna live next to a BBQ joint. I'm green with envy. Also on the premises, you'll find a coffee joint, with lots of single origin or blends named after fun things. The BBQ was delicious! I got a pulled pork sandwich, which was exceptional. It was piled high, served with onions. We also got some brisket, which also was moist and tender. We both opted for jambalaya for the side, which was a wise choice. It was flavorful and full of sausage. I haven't tried camping in the RV park yet, but I can imagine that it's a popular place, since I'd just wanna drink their coffee and eat their BBQ all day by the pool. read more
